BIG Cuban Cigars - Your Recommendations, please!

[cohibaIV]

Come on then, men.

When do you smoke a monster?

For me, it will have to be a special occasion, or when I have a whole day off.

I do love them now and again, but they take so fucking long to smoke!

Right now, whilst basking in the sun...

[TJCoro]

Totally agree...totally!

I agree with CJ and Whisk Bryan...suit yourself but obviously don't spark up a Party Salomones in your 15 minute tea-break

I agree with Mr. Whisky,

young steventheboy,

senor serious,

senors dot: and CJ,
Cohiba IV,

young yankeedoodle,

Habanospy,

and anyone else who might post here...


Names TJ, TJCoro, and DAMN IT!!! I forgot what I'm agreeing too!

[Kdot]

Nothing quite like a big cigar to kill a couple of hours...Below are some that I have enjoyed in the past.

Cuaba Solomones
Trinidad Robusto extra
Monte A (felt the burn wasnt too great)
Hoyo Double Corona
RyJ, Hoyo, Punch, Bolivar Churchills are all quality big smokes

[Stevieboy]

Agree with CJ on that one.I don`t think there is a specific time when to smoke one.

It is nice to have something ready for that special ocassion, but in general it is if the mood takes me.

here is my 2 cents robusto rj churchill, hd double corona or churchill, and as mentioned earlier punch. i know you said only 1 but these all pack a punch and should knock your socks off. good luck and enjoy your trip.

[HabanoSy]

I know you said just one recommendation!!! but honestly anyone of the below and you won't go far wrong...

1. Cohiba Double Corona LE03
2. Montecristo Double Corona LE01
3. Punch Double Corona (06 box date)
4. Hoyo de Monterrey Double Corona
5. Vegas Robaina Don Alejandro
6. Ramon Allones Gigantes
7. Partagas Lusitania (04 box date)

Hope this helps in your decision making...!?!

Cheers, HabanoSy

[Deano]

What I have in my cuban pics all the time - Punch double corona. Oh yehhhh.

[cohibaIV]

I would suggest the Hoyo de Monterrey Churchills...bloody well nice smokes

[Stevieboy]

I'm very tempted by all the others, but probably most by the Ramon Allones Gigante because I adore anything RA.

Do Juan Lopez make any monsters?

Get the RA Bry - you won't be disappointed

The biggest JL in regular production is the #1, a gorda, and it's every bit as good as the #2.
They also produce a Swiss only Maximos. I've got a box and a half and I can honestly say they're one of the best smokes I've ever had

JL are also bringing out a UK only MONSTER this year: a doble robustos 52RG and nearly 7" long. I imagine they'll be about ?18 per stick and I for one cannot f'ing wait

Gentlemen

I've had wonderful smokes with a number of the biggies you have mentioned above, which are - in no particlar order:

• Cohiba Esplendidos
• Montecristo Sublime
• Partagas Lusitanias
• Cohiba Siglo VI
• La Gloria Cubana - a Cuban one, and a monster

I'm very tempted by all the others, but probably most by the Ramon Allones Gigante because I adore anything RA.

Do Juan Lopez make any monsters? And Bolivar?
I know I could look that up but thought men into monsters might know!

I intend to make MONSTERS my everyday smokes of choice when on the island.

British modesty - and prices - can come later.

[whisky77]

decisions decisions!

Difficult question Robusto.If forced into choosing then I would probably go for the Partagas Lusis or Salomones,MC Sublime or Siglo VI, and as Stevieboy already suggested the RA Gigante.

[Robusto]

This is great advice, my men. Thank you.
PLEASE contribute, folks, because I'd lke to see if there is a favourite.
